This soap is very concentrated. I found that using 2 drops of this soap when washing one pair of compression stockings in a gallon of water is enough for a great cleaning. I had used more soap but that was way too much as I had to rinse the stockings several times to get all of the soap cleared out of them.

Wanted a handy size for travel. Fit the bill perfectly. Have mastered the art of using a rubber kitchen sink stopper to convert hotel sinks into washing stations.

Good product, but cap broke. Was able to replace with the cap from a two liter soda bottle.

Works as advertized. I have bought this product before and expect to continue buying it in the future.

So nearly as I can tell, this products performs as advertised. It washes the compressed stockings in a way satisfactory to me.
Since compression stockings are specially designed with special materials, I do not know how this soap interacts with the material over the long run. Since this product is designed to clean Jobst compression stockings (the brand I wear), I have to assume it is a good product to use on those stockings.

A little goes a long way. Cleans my stockings well, usually wash a couple of bras at the same time. Does a nice job without being overly sudsy and hard to rinse.

A: mmhg stands for "millimeter of mercury", a way to measure pressure. The higher the number, the tighter the garment will squeeze and the more compression it provides.

Q: How can we wash the garments? And with which soap or detergent?

A: We recommend to hand wash in warm water and air dry. You can use mild soup of the washing solution that we provide such as the jobst jolastic, hosiery mate washing solution, sigvaris liquid washing solution etc.
See our full washing instructions.

Q: What is the difference between open toe and close toe?

A: There is no therapeutic difference between open and closed toe socks. The choice is yours, whichever is more comfortable.

Q: What is opaque?

A: Opaque is a thicker material that provides great coverage and your skin will be far less visible. Usually worn in winter because of the thickness.

Q: What is sheer?

A: Sheer is a thinner, dressier material. Customer usually like these because they can use them as dress socks for work or church.

Q: Do I get compression at the toe area?

A: No. Compression begins at the ankle and gradually lessens as it goes up the leg. This reduces pooling in the legs and helps the veins return blood to the heart.

Q: Will a thicker material give me more support than the sheer material?

A: No. The compression provided is measured by mmHg and is the same no matter the material. The choice of material is up to you, whichever is more comfortable.

Q: If I get pantyhose will I get more compression than with a knee-hi?
